Abstract
Two species have been described for the sequestrate genus Mycoamaranthus: M. auriorbis, and M. congolensis. Availability of several more collections of this genus from Thailand led us to re-examine M. auriorbis, which proved to be the same as Dendrogaster cambodgensis. Accordingly, we propose the new combination, Mycoamaranthus cambodgensis.
